Just one of only God knows how many

I’m sure folks are clucking their tongues world wide over this case, and rightfully so. It’s absolutely pathetic. When I first read it, I immediately said a prayer not just for the little girl, but also for her parents and relatives. The scariest part is that this is just one case that actually made it to the news. Only God knows how many thousands (millions?) more children are abused without anyone ever knowing about it.

Perhaps stories like these are a call to us to more vitally live our own vocations and to serve the Body of Christ with greater sacrificial zeal.
